Surveillance video caught images of the man, woman and child authorities believe stole the light brown-and-white mixed breed puppy Tuesday afternoon, a few hours before his new owner Ed Garcia was to take him home.

A woman bought the puppy, which Garcia has renamed Bodhi, outside a Safeway. She returned it to the shelter after her mother recognized it from the news reports.

Anyone with information on the man and woman caught on tape should contact Sgt. Pete Shields at the Mission Police Station at 415-558-5400.
